Assessment

You will sit various assessments throughout the course, alongside an endpoint assessment at the end of the programme.

About the course

Working with a wide range of internal and external stakeholders to deliver accurate and timely accounts services. This will include their line manager and team members, together with the workers and the clients of the organisation they are managing accounts for. They may liaise with software departments, or houses, where the accounts system is hosted externally. An assistant accountant will be responsible for managing their own caseload and time whilst reporting to a more senior accountant.

Career options

Full-time employment. Upon completion, you can also progress to a higher level apprenticeship or qualification.

Career progression is excellent for apprentices, and over the course of their careers, those with an Apprenticeship earn on average, £100,000 more than those without. (A Cost-Benefit Analysis of Apprenticeships and Other Vocational Qualifications, University of Sheffield, 2007)
